Thefirst step is for the country to meet the key criteria for accession. These were mainly defined at the European Council in Copenhagen in 1993 and are hence referred to as 'Copenhagen criteria'. Countries wishing to join need to have:

In the case of the countries of the Western Balkans additional conditions for membership, were set out in the so-called 'Stabilisation and Association process', mostly relating to regional cooperation and good neighbourly relations.

TSA Cares provides information on security procedures aimed to help passengers with disabilities, medical conditions and individuals needing additional assistance to better prepare for the security screening process.

The U.S. Drought Monitor 1-week change map shows where drought has improved, remained the same, or worsened since the previous week's Drought Monitor. Yellow/orange hues show areas where drought worsened, while green hues show drought improvement.

Drought is defined as the lack of precipitation over an extended period of time, usually for a season or more, that results in a water shortage. Changes in precipitation can substantially disrupt crops and livestock, influence the frequency and intensity of severe weather events, and affect the quality and quantity of water available for municipal and industrial use.

Compared to "normal" conditions, current evaporative demand is in the bottom 0% to 2% of historical values (i.e., less than 2% of previous values had lower evaporative demand). Learn more about these categories.

This map shows the moisture content of the top 20 cm of soil compared to historical conditions, based on in situ (in the ground) measurements of soil moisture from a wide range of state and federal mesonets across the continental U.S. These data are then interpolated into a 4 km grid.

Soil moisture plays an important role in drought and flood forecasting, agricultural monitoring, forest fire prediction, water supply management, and other natural resource activities. Soil moisture observations can forewarn of impending drought or flood conditions before other more standard indicators are triggered.

Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected across portions of the central/northern Plains Sunday while heavy to excessive rainfall may bring flooding to northern Minnesota and the Tennessee Valley. Dry and windy conditions will bring elevated to critical fire weather across parts of the Great Basin while dry thunderstorms may lead to new wildfire starts in the northern Rockies. Read More >

Social determinants of health (SDOH) are the conditions in the environments where people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship, and age that affect a wide range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks.

Just promoting healthy choices won't eliminate these and other health disparities. Instead, public health organizations and their partners in sectors like education, transportation, and housing need to take action to improve the conditions in people's environments.

More than a dozen workgroups made up of subject matter experts with different backgrounds and areas of expertise developed these objectives. One of these groups, the Social Determinants of Health Workgroup, focuses solely on SDOH.

The optional Conditions section contains statements that define the circumstances under which entities are created or configured. For example, you can create a condition and then associate it with a resource or output so that CloudFormation only creates the resource or output if the condition is true. Similarly, you can associate the condition with a property so that CloudFormation only sets the property to a specific value if the condition is true. If the condition is false, CloudFormation sets the property to a different value that you specify.

You might use conditions when you want to reuse a template that can create resources in different contexts, such as a test environment versus a production environment. In your template, you can add an EnvironmentType input parameter, which accepts either prod or test as inputs. For the production environment, you might include Amazon EC2 instances with certain capabilities; however, for the test environment, you want to use reduced capabilities to save money. With conditions, you can define which resources are created and how they're configured for each environment type.

Conditions are evaluated based on predefined pseudo parameters or input parameter values that you specify when you create or update a stack. Within each condition, you can reference another condition, a parameter value, or a mapping. After you define all your conditions, you can associate them with resources and resource properties in the Resources and Outputs sections of a template.

At stack creation or stack update, AWS CloudFormation evaluates all the conditions in your template before creating any resources. Resources that are associated with a true condition are created. Resources that are associated with a false condition are ignored. CloudFormation also re-evaluates these conditions at each stack update before updating any resources. Resources that are still associated with a true condition are updated. Resources that are now associated with a false condition are deleted.

Define the inputs that you want your conditions to evaluate. The conditions evaluate to true or false based on the values of these input parameters. If you want your conditions to evaluate pseudo parameters, you don't need to define the pseudo parameters in this section; pseudo parameters are predefined by CloudFormation. For more information about pseudo parameters, see Pseudo parameters reference.

Associate conditions with the resources or outputs that you want to conditionally create. CloudFormation creates entities that are associated with a true condition and ignores entities that are associated with a false condition. Use the Condition key and a condition's logical ID to associate it with a resource or output. To conditionally specify a property, use the Fn::If function. For an example, see Associating a condition.

The Conditions section consists of the key name Conditions. Each condition declaration includes a logical ID and intrinsic functions that are evaluated when you create or update a stack. The following pseudo template outlines the Conditions section:

The following sample template includes an EnvType input parameter, where you can specify prod to create a stack for production or test to create a stack for testing. For a production environment, CloudFormation creates an Amazon EC2 instance and attaches a volume to the instance. For a test environment, CloudFormation creates only the Amazon EC2 instance.

The CreateProdResources condition evaluates to true if the EnvType parameter is equal to prod. In the sample template, the NewVolume and MountPoint resources are associated with the CreateProdResources condition. Therefore, the resources are created only if the EnvType parameter is equal to prod.

The following sample template references a condition within another condition. You can create a stack that creates an s3 bucket. For a stack deployed in a production environment, CloudFormation creates a policy for the S3 bucket.

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides eligible employees up to 12 workweeks of unpaid leave a year, and requires group health benefits to be maintained during the leave as if employees continued to work instead of taking leave. Employees are also entitled to return to their same or an equivalent job at the end of their FMLA leave.

The FMLA also provides certain military family leave entitlements. Eligible employees may take FMLA leave for specified reasons related to certain military deployments of their family members. Additionally, they may take up to 26 weeks of FMLA leave in a single 12-month period to care for a covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness.
